Nothing to lose, Dubs rampant favourites, hope we throw everything at them, including the kitchen sink.... Kildare have tough next game against Down, they didnt seem to bring alot of support yesterday...should be a good final....An Mhi Abu...hopefully sob (Meath) - Posts: 492 - 30/06/2014 08:49:45 1611159 Link 0 |

All the pressure is on Dublin , I suppose the first 15 in the second half is crucial for us , if we can hold our game at that point we will upset the trend that they seem to have made for themselves . royalpainter (Meath) - Posts: 874 - 30/06/2014 09:43:44 1611215 Link 0 |
Only one change to the team of yesterday would be in my opinion Newman in for Graham Reilly. If Meath take their goal chances against Dublin when the arrive we can win this game. Obviously Dublin are red hot favorite but I think they are far from unbeatable and are playing the toughest outfit in leinster bar themselves. royalgaz (Meath) - Posts: 49 - 30/06/2014 09:59:40 1611232 Link 0 |
Improved performance against Kildare heartening. Dublin in final is another major challenge . Concerned about fitness for 75 mins for some players. Too many seemed to run out of steam incl. SOR,Meade Tormey,Menton,and maybe couple more. Hoping these lads can improve their stamina levels after their injuries. Shephen Bray a class player [ but we knew that anyway] hoping he can last for full match. Cenrefield stamina serious questions? nobull456 (Meath) - Posts: 1198 - 30/06/2014 10:16:06 1611254 Link 0 |
And will Newman play in half back line as Graham Reilly did yesterday? Are we really talking about that? royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 30/06/2014 10:20:45 1611260 Link 0 |

Heard it from home area. Apparently hamstring not improving as hoped, so is doubtful . but hopefully will make it as I think we really need him in final. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 30/06/2014 10:41:33 1611301 Link 0 |

Lads, on what was a comprehensive win yesterday, we missed way too many scoring opportunities. I agree that Dalton worked his socks off as did every single player, but IMO he, along with Wallace missed too many chances. Fair enough he scored the goal, but was allowed a clear run on goal srom 30 odd metres. Also, I would of thought that th winning of the penalty was almost another missed opportunity that another referee may not have given? Wallace also missed chances that simply couldnt be missed on another day. tackleberry (Meath) - Posts: 324 - 30/06/2014 11:44:28 1611391 Link 0 |
You could do with a midfield player (e.g. Adam Flanagan) on that bench! GlasagusOr (Meath) - Posts: 1348 - 30/06/2014 11:57:10 1611409 Link 0 |
Meath will win. We only operated at about 40% yesterday. We will be ready and will be the better team on the day. Meathmen (Meath) - Posts: 73 - 30/06/2014 12:49:08 1611481 Link 0 |
Meathmen I hope we didn't work at 40% cause a lot of boys were wrecked with 10 mins to go so wouldn't lick to see what it would look like at 100% shrek95 (Meath) - Posts: 77 - 30/06/2014 13:23:15 1611520 Link 0 |
Real pity we didn't have Gillespie,so perhaps we could have played SOR and brought Meade on later for him ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 30/06/2014 14:26:46 1611581 Link 0 |
Yesterdays game was a sign that meath actually have a good chance against the Dubs,the way we set up yesterday was pure preparation for the dubs by playing the counter attacking game,i was chatting to 2 meath players last week and i was really surprised how confident they were about beating kildare and how right they were,i thought meath were very good yesterday and their game plan was excellent and worked wonders.To beat dublin we will have to have super performances by 21 players and have at least a 4-5 point lead at half time,tobin and reilly did huge work off the ball yesterday and created the space for bray who really loves playing in croker.the service he got from his teammates was very good especially from carroll.Laois made dublin look very ordinary and should have been 5 points up at half time so can this meath panel do the same ?? absolutely,dublins full back line is weak in my opinion and bray and co could exploit it if they get the same service as yesterday.yesterdays game will bring shane o rourke on another 20%,all the pressure on the dubs, and guys they dont like pressure,especially from meath men,gonna be a cracker....hon the royals. thelutch (Meath) - Posts: 1043 - 30/06/2014 14:53:39 1611603 Link 0 |
